Comments
Comments: bayview was tracked out. granular snow had good grip. no ice of note. upper mt. major trail had an adhered layer of granular snow over ice on the upper ledges. got good grip with aggressive light traction, but some may be more comfortable in crampons. brook trail tracked out as well and generally had good footing. some avoidable areas of running water and ice.

good quick morning hike up major. cold and windy with moody skies. very nice.
